The correct way to open the sprite

Chapter 70 This is Business
On the contrary, Dick, a dwarf with stubby limbs, who jumped up and down on the boat, was not worried at all. He didn't know whether he had confidence in the boat or in his water skills.

"Brother Dick, reverse gear off shore, let's set sail!"

Dick turned the mechanical handle backwards, closed the transmission disc, and shouted: "Let's set sail!"

Because the front end of the flat-bottomed boat is tilted, it can directly ground the bow to load and unload cargo on the shore, so Feng Yu designed a reverse gear through the transmission gear, just for the convenience of going offshore.

As the water spray surged behind the boat, the bow of the boat slowly moved away from the shore, and many people on the shore began to marvel and discuss loudly.

When the boat was 20 meters away from the shore, it had been adjusted to the direction against the current through the rudder.

"Captain Dick, full speed ahead!"

Dick also played wildly with Feng Yu, shouting: "Full speed ahead!" and switched the power to the forward position.

Watching the boat go from standing still on the river to going upstream a little bit, the speed is getting faster and faster, and people's exclamation is getting louder and louder.

Originally, the propeller that Feng Yu worked out did not consider the problem of reversing, so it seemed very slow when reversing, but now it started to move forward at full speed, and the speed of the boat gradually increased, and white water splashed on the bow. .

The ripples on the hull of the ship seemed to split the Lengshui River, and evenly flowed to both sides of the bank as the ship moved forward rapidly.

Feng Yu saw a lot of children chasing the boat on the shore, and even a lot of adults joined in. He couldn't help but sigh, the plot of worshiping big machines seems to be common in any world!
The fastest steamboat against the current is about the same as people's daily running speed, so people have been chasing the boat on the shore and watching.

But the boat will not be tired, but the people will be tired. After Feng Yu and the others have advanced for half an hour, no one will follow them on the shore. Only halflings grazing along the river can be seen staring at them dumbfounded, and some even Before Feng Yu and the others approached, they ran to the wasteland in panic.

Feng Yu hurriedly asked Dick to drive the boat to the side of the Lengshui River near the Xueding Mountains, so as not to disturb the halfling herdsmen.

Dick turned slowly while laughing loudly, and ran to the opposite bank next to the snow-capped mountains.

It took a total of three hours to test this time. Fearing that Nicole was worried about Feng Yu, Dick drove the boat back to the shore of Cattail City. Sure enough, Nicole and Anthony were still waiting on the shore. Sitting on the shore in twos and threes, seeing Feng Yu and his boat coming back, they quickly surrounded them.

Feng Yu found that two wooden stakes had been nailed on the shore during the time they were walking. Seeing the boat approaching, an elf threw over a rope that had been tied to the wooden stakes.

Feng Yu took the rope, and after the bow of the boat touched the shore, he tied the rope to the iron ring of the bow.

After he jumped off the boat, he asked Clarence's apprentice to get on the boat to help the teacher who had vomited until he was in the dark, and told Dick to turn off the engine, and walked to Nicole and Anthony.

"The effect is not bad. It's no problem to pull dozens of people or a few thousand catties of goods. If you keep going day and night, you can reach the mouth of the tributary of the Obscure Moon Forest in less than three days."

Nicole said in surprise: "It's too fast. We went to the Obscure Moon Forest and walked back and forth for nearly two months."

Feng Yu said: "It can't be calculated that way. You don't need manpower to walk by boat. The machine doesn't stop when you don't stop the boat. But when you walk, you have to stop to rest, eat and sleep at night. You don't need to take a boat. There is nothing on the wide Lengshui River. No, as long as two or three people take turns to sail the boat, even at night, they can advance quickly by the light of the stars and the moon.

However, after the opening of the spring, the boat cannot be used at night. At that time, there will be large ice blocks in the water, and the boat will hit it if it is difficult to see clearly at night. "

He didn't want to remake a Titanic story in another world.

"Grandpa, let's find a place to talk!"

Anthony glanced at Feng Yu, sighed and said, "Go to my tent, Nicole, you go back first."

Nicole glanced at Feng Yu, Feng Yu nodded incredulously, Nicole glanced at Anthony pleadingly, and left step by step, the little girl was very reluctant to leave, she looked back and walked side by side to Anthony's tent after a few steps The two who went.

Anthony looked at Nicole, the veins in his head were throbbing, and he said to himself, silly boy, you thought it was me who made things difficult for your Darren, it was he who wanted to negotiate terms with me, okay? !
"If you have anything to say, say it!"

When they arrived in the tent, Anthony directly started a new round of conversation between the two of them.

"Thank you for the elf recruits, and Herbert, his tactical quality is very good, and he helped me a lot."

"Let's talk about the conditions. You must know that when the weather gets warmer, the goblin caravan will come to the Obscure Moon Forest again. I don't think you can let the goblins steal your business."

Feng Yu smiled, and said to himself that the old man still understands me quite well, that's right, it's business, and Feng Yu didn't intend to get tons of good person cards.

In other words, even if he gave the salt to the Obscure Moon Forest, he might not be able to reap thanks. After all, except for a small number of elves in the Obscure Moon Forest who migrated to avoid the cold, the rest don't even know what he looks like.

Even Dick and Alan, who have helped Feng Yu a lot, he didn't intend to give away for nothing, let alone the elves who are used to being taken advantage of, their wealth can be searched by goblins, why can't they fulfill themselves within a reasonable range ?Compared with goblins, Feng Yu's price can be regarded as the conscience of heaven and earth.

"You have also seen that whether it is the work in the salt fields or the porcelain factory, it is not an easy job. Besides, there is no reason to let the halflings and dwarves work, let us enjoy the benefits, we are all equal, and no one owes anyone else no?!

So, you see, the price I negotiated with the dwarves is still the same. I will exchange the value of ten catties of salt for each goblin silver coin with the elves for equivalent supplies, just what you exchanged with the goblins. "

Feng Yu knew that the elf had no money, so he had to settle for the next best thing and exchange for supplies.As for supplies, except for industrial needs, such as high-transparency magic crystals, the rest is naturally connected to the goblins and exchanged for gold and silver.

Feng Yu plans to establish his own currency system, bypass the restrictions of race and clan through economic means, control the labor force and craftsmen in the camp, and thus basically control the entire camp. As for those so-called status, he is not rare.

Besides, with his identity as a 'lander from another continent', it is difficult to obtain a title of real power among the elves. Therefore, Feng Yu's plan is to control industrial production capacity as a means, and then control the lifeline of the economy, and finally achieve the goal of controlling people. population purpose.

In this way, he can establish an efficient system that can be used by him.
